According to Newsarama Marvel repeats the earlier experiment this summer after "life-changing events", i.e. apparently the "No more Avengers" utterance.

(I'm betting it's Hope that says it, not Wanda.  That would make more sense.)

At least it doesn't look like another chase, but there's not enough to really tell.

Someone really should tell Rogue to zip it. The "(X)", I mean. Not a good look.

The trouble with this "No more Avengers" bit (amongt, I'm usre, many others) is "No more Mutants" clearly identified a target group who all had something in common. Being a mutant is, literally, in your DNA. If you have the gene, you were included (aside from the irksome handwave of it not affecting most of the X-Men.... X-Force... X-Factor, New Mutants and the like), if you don't have the gene it skipped over you.

It was annoying but there was a simple logic to it.

"No more Avengers" is just... annoyingly vague. Do they mean current Avengers? Anyone who has ever BEEN an Avenger? Anyone who is on a specific Avenger team? And what is intended to happen to those it affects? Death? Exile? Dimensional shunt? Their titles cancelled?

Maybe it just means Hope/Phoenix is planning on killing the Avengers.

What-the-fuck-ever Marvel. Just get through this crap so that we can read Carol as Captain Marvel come July and see if the Avengers will be readable again now that Bendis is leaving.

I am maybe a little bit terrified that they're going to use this as a great opportunity to reboot the Avengers franchise to match the movie-verse as much as possible.

eg: make it so that all the non-A-listers like Mantis, Stingray, Silverclaw etc were never actually Avengers at all and we are left with only the members who are currently active in the franchise as ever having BEEN active Avengers.

I mean I may be completely off-base and will be very happy to be proven wrong....it just strikes me that the list of people who have been Avengers at some point or another currently encompasses a LOT of characters and Marvel might decide to prune that back a bit?

superstar creators Mark Waid, Yves “Balak” Bigerel and Carlo Barberi bring fans a must read story featuring Cyclops and how the world is seen through his eyes

i feel like we have been seeing it since whedon's astonishing, then fraction, brubaker, and now gillen.

but i like waid's work on dd.

i wonder how many books i'll get to keep after this whole thing is over. hickman is leaving ff, yes? that's sad.

I doubt "No More Avengers" will last longer than the event itself, this will be what 2 thirds of the way through?

Please tell me that Wanda saying "no more Avengers" is some sort of metaphor, analogy, hyperbole, exaggeration, anything... anything but literal.
